Headers

I have looked for quite some time to find some headers for my application with no luck. Maybe y'all can help me out.

I need headers to fit a 460 w/c6 in a 1968 F-100 2wd SWB. Might take some suggestions on swap parts for this conversion too. It was originally a 240/I6 w/c4. Right now it has a 302 transplanted in it, but that's making way for the 460.

Any help is appreciated.

Have you looked at L&L Products yet? they have done a lot to make swapping a 460 into a stock truck easy, and do offer headers for conversion as well as complete conversion kits...

Hey, I don't know if this helps but to keep cost reasonnable I bought a set of Heddmans for a 1973-1976 f-100 460. I used them on my 58 f-100 cleared everything just fine.

Yeah...I want full length headers also. I can't believe it's so hard to find such a beast for these trucks. I've seen buttloads of trucks in magazines that have headers...certainly they aren't all having them custom made.

I'll check out the L&L site again, but I'm pretty sure I checked there already.

Mayhaps if the old lady ever breaks down and buys me the present I REALLY want, I'll weld up my own.
